Sean: What do you think of Lost this season, anyway? We haven’t really talked about it before. Do you think it’s lost momentum? That’s what people are saying.
Sean’s Missus: …I think it’s different than it used to be. I don’t think it’s lost momentum.
Sean: Do you think it’s better? Do you think it’s worse?
Sean’s Missus: I just think it’s changed. It’s not better or worse, just different.
Sean: A lot of people have complained about that this season.
Sean’s Missus: But shows have to change as they go on.
Sean: You’re right–it’d just be treading the same territory over and over if it was the same as it used to be. Still, people think it’s too Others-centric now…
Sean’s Missus: I’m sure The Sopranos has changed, hasn’t it?
Sean: Absolutely, and people complain about that, too.
Sean’s Missus: Okay, but look at The X-Files. That show didn’t change, and look how that turned out.
